After a tense prologue to set up the film, It takes a little while to adjust to the scenario presented - Max might be Mad, but the world presented is completely nuts and difficult to accept even on its own terms (Some slightly dodgy acting from some of the minor characters doesn't help). But, that all quickly fades once the film sets out into the desert and quickly develops into one very intense chase film. Miller has created some of the most visceral and tense chase sequences in some time, each one different enough to prevent the film from becoming stale. That a lot of the stunts were done for real certainly makes it much more appealing, yet the film wouldn't work if we didn't care about the characters. Hardy as Max is certainly effective, but the real revelation here is Theron's Furiosa, The film is also beautifully shot with some stunning images that make this one of those films worth seeing on the biggest screen possible. The epilogue wraps things up a little too easily, but the thrill here is in the chase and one that is definitely worth taking.
